TGRT (initialism of Türkiye Gazete Radyo Televizyon, 'Türkiye Newspaper, Radio, Television') was a Turkish free-to-air television channel. Launched by İhlas Holding as one of Turkey's earliest private television broadcasters on April 22, 1993, it operated until February 2007 when it was replaced by FOX, whose parent company News Corporation had purchased the broadcasting rights of TGRT on July 25, 2006. The sale, which marked the first time a Turkish television channel was sold to foreign capital, included the broadcasting rights and the terrestrial broadcasting frequencies belonging to TGRT, but not the TGRT branding, which continues to exist as the corporate company name. The sister channels TGRT Haber, TGRT EU and TGRT Belgesel also remain with İhlas Holding.
